Resorting to Revenge: A Dear Red Game Review

Hey there folks, its me! After days or weeks of the 2nd semester finals, I finally have time to write here again! Although I still have 2 more exams left, and knowing my affinity to games, I surely still have some games that I can review here! So lets get down to it now.


Dear Red is a good old horror RPG games (I actually think that this game was made with an RPG maker) available to be played in mobile phones and PC. The game was developed by Sang Hendrix and was released back in November 2015. it weighs less then 30 MB, so I think it can be played by most phones nowadays. Now, let's get into the game!

The Story

The game tells a story of a woman, named Red, who is shown making her way in a forest. At the start, we will arrive at a house in the middle of the forest. Here, we are told of her motivation, it is revenge that brought her here. Apparently, the occupant of the house is someone she believes to have murdered her mother back when she was little. It took her long to learn the truth and its only after her father's death that she decided to take on this quest of vengeance.  It is in this trip of her, that she would uncover many things, the truth of her past, the murderer's identity, and the validity of her reason. 

The Gameplay

Dear Red's gameplay follows the usual horror RPG games, that being point & click mechanic and its multiple endings, minus the puzzles. For the mechanic, we'll be playing the usual touch and interact (point & click) mechanism, where each item you interact with will show a pop up box containing its description. For the multiple ending aspect, this game takes it to a new level. There are a lot of endings to this game, but worry not, to obtain them it won't take too much time as this game is surprisingly quick to complete. Hell, even some ending can be achieved in less the 5 minutes. So yeah, it sure contains a quick playing experience. 

Overall Thought

Just like my other opinions on horror RPG games, I really like this game. The premise it has is really good and how they manage to expand the story to a lot of endings is just great! Despite its short playing time, I still find the game enjoyable to play. The theme is fine as far as the game goes and the design (as it follows the typical horror RPG) is fine too. My score for this game is gonna be a 8.5/10. So go head to the play store or Steam to install it and go treat yourself for an excellent game and story. As for Sang Hendrix, keep it up! Can't wait for your next and bigger projects!

This time, its going to be a brief review of a game I finished in less than an hour. This is a review of Lilac and Her Light!

New Hobby : The Art of Toy Photography

Most people still think that the only thing toy collectors do to their toys is simply as an ornament. A piece that only acts merely for display purposes, but the current stigma is actually wrong! Truth is there are tons of stuff you can do with your toys, the one I'm putting on the menu now is an art called Toy Photography. Toy photography is just another form of photography, but it specifies in using toys as the subject. It can be done both indoor and outdoor, even underwater as long as you have the right equipment. It also uses the same equipment as the usual photography with an exception of the toy's support utilities (Figure stands, dioramas, extra lighting, etc). To me, it's a perfect activity for toy collectors including me as a way to put your toys in action! From many professional toy photographers I know, there are 3 main points of toy photography, they are: 1. Bringing the toys to life Most of the toy shots I've seen are so good they manage to chan...

Giving company on a long lonely trip! A Terasene-Girl X Sun Game Review

Girl X Sun-Terasene is another developed by the Sleeping Museum, the maker of the Death Palette game. The game is developed with Unity engine and is available to play in mobile through google play store. The games was released back in May 2018, but it has earned more attention recently following another update that translated the game in English, somewhat the same case with Death Palette. The game has been downloaded for over 50.000 times and it weighs around 30 MB, so its indeed a light game for your device. The game can be considered as one of the story based adventure/single player platformer (?) game, although its not that kind of hard/more common action.  The Story It started off with a girl who is taking a walk at night away from a huge castle. What makes it unique is that the girl is carrying an umbrella. We are then told of her condition, that she can't make contact with sunlight as it may harm her, hence the umbrella. But why is she taking an umbrella at night? It's be...
